| If possible more on the dark-ish side of things, but not necessarily 100% serious. Sci-fi, fantasy, psychological, mystery, action are all genres I like. OVA recs from the 80's and 90's are especially welcome. Thanks! |

VioletRage said: Sentou Yousei Yukikaze Almost forgotten about that one, will give it a priority bump. Thanks! worldeditor11 said: Battle Angel Battle Royal High School Space Fantasia 2001 Nights Is Battle Royal High School as trashy as it sounds/as the one review on MAL makes it out to be? Space Fantasia sounds awesome though and Battle Angel Alita was pretty good too (just seen it today) so I'll give them a try for sure. |

| Seconding Key the Metal idol, Yukikaze, and Space Fantasia 2001 Nights. These are all decent OVAs. As for more recs: For sci-fi/action, Armitage III for sure. This one is probably most similar to Battle Angel Alita. For fantasy, Record of Lodoss War is the only big one that comes to mind. For a mix of a lot of genres, Phoenix: Karma Chapter and Phoenix: Space Chapter were both good. The rest of the Phoenix franchise you would probably enjoy as well. For psychological/mystery, Twilight Q is an interesting one. The second short by Mamoru Oshii is the stand-out work here, it will definitely mess your brain a little. Shonan Junai Gumi was a rather good prequel to Great Teacher Onizuka. And finally Armor Hunter Mellowlink is a very dark, gritty, and ultraviolent revenge tale. It isn't very heavy on the mecha, and you don't have to be familiar with Votoms to watch this one (it is only set in the same universe). |

Tarextherex said: Eve no Jikan(ONA though but easily one of the best ones) the rest of this guy's work is very good as well R.O.D OVA isn't serious so I dunno if you'll like it but it's a good action flick Eve no Jikan is already on my list and it was very good indeed. Read or Die has been mentioned a couple of times to me already, time to check it out. Thanks! LeQr said: Cossette no Shouzou pretty surrealistic - if you are into that kind of stuff. Already seen and it was okay, but not entirely my cup of tea. Nightmare95 said: Endycia said: Dark OVA?

I really liked it. For now I'm expecting not much in terms of plot, but if it positively surprises me, even better. |

Please learn about cel animation and its technical process. Learn how special effects and backlighting were done without computers. |
| Thanks guys, especially to Cabron for the super-long list of titles to check out :) |
